I'd have to agree. I think Cole was probably the best, then Andy, Leo and Dan (although the latter two are a bit too nice!)

Dan, i didn't like

Now you come to mention it, the men are pretty weak in this show.

My favourite ever comes up later in this series though.

i thought dan was rubbish, he was a really boring character... fi didn#t you like cole?

The men are a bit two dimensional in Charmed, I don't think they're very important to the plot as it's more about the bond between the sisters and Good versus Evil. Hopefully soon we'll be able to learn more about the male characters!!

I liked him to start with, but the whole *he's good... he's bad... he's good again* etc got really boring and annoying.

That shouldnt have to make a difference. Male producers can write strong female leads, why not vice versa?

i second that. don't be sexist bala!

He'll never stop.

read that comment again?, so vice-versa female producer should write Strong male leads? but because charmed producer are female there are being sexist and writing themselves as strong chracter while the men seem weaker chracters so re-think that comment

Well I got to be honest this was a cheesy episode but to a certain extent it was rather amusing being sucked into unfinished novel by one of magic school students, that poor norm had no idea what it was going to get killed. Paige and Brody getting sucked into the novel was rather cool to a certain extent, I hate black & white movie so this episode was an episode I wasn’t looking forward to last week. Despite this I have to say it wasn’t as bad I thought it was going to be? When did Paige have power to orb people by waving her hand?, I thought she hold hands to orb people?

It was great to see the Avatar again helping Leo but also helps us to understand more about how their powers worked, so somehow all of them are connected and I loved that appear and disappear like a flash. I think next week sister find out about Leo, looking forward to that episode.

Yes perhaps they are being sexist. That doesnt mean that all female producers would do the same thing. That was the point I was trying to make.

Ah that episode. I thought it was soooo done before, many, many times. And I thought it again showed how awful RM can be at acting.

i agree with that but i was talking about charmed producers not Female producers in general .

well that episode is amusing but amazing how they come up with these idea , surely what next alice in wonderland?

Thats not how you made it sound bala. I think we should put this one down to a misunderstanding.

Anyway, Alice in Wonderland isnt beyond them, they have done fairytales before.

ok, i give you that

i agree that this was a cheesy episode and it has kind of been done before... and it again felt more like a filler episode... i am getting the feeling the second half of this season is going to be better.

piper: i can understand her not wanting to jump into things with leo. and it would freak me out too if my husband suddenly changed from being depressed to overly happy and all ok again... but i do like that she is thinking baout gettign back together and it was nice for their relationship to be addressed again!

leo: well i do hope that he will soon tell the sisters about his powers because we seem to have had too many storyline where there is something important going on with one of the characters and they for some reason decide not to tell the others... you're just asking for trouble! but it nice to see a happier leo again!

phoebe: aw, matchmaking... there wasn't really that much phoebe in this episode and i am wodnering who her next guy friend will be. because they seem to have gone so wrong with jason and leslie that i wonder whether they will ever be able to find someoen who's right for her... but for now i prefer that she is signle!

paige: i agree with fiona her acting was again very bad. i don't think they should have episodes centred around her. it was made so obvious that brody and piage would end up togeter at the end of this episode, but rather than liking their getting together scene i found it slightly cringe worthy with her line "just shut up and kiss me", has been done so many times before and so much better.... i think i would haev preferred brody with phoebe! but then i guess piage has never really had a boyfriend on the show who was present for a couple of episodes...

all in all: i actually really like films and picutres in black and white so i enjoyed that part! but the story didn't have me gripped and i wasn't constantly wondering how they were going to get out because it seemed fairly obvious. but that kid playing the mullen brother was kind of sweet, he seemed kind of helpless! i wonder what next week's will be like! (sorry to add tihs but major draw back again: NO WYATT!)

It does get better Jennifer... well imo (before bala jumps down my throat again).

And cringe worthy is a great way of describing it.

I dont think Phoebe and Brodie would match, I think he's a little too lame. She usually goes for the more suave ones. I hadnt thought about Paige not having someone ever. That is true, but then there are people out there that cant hold down a partner for more than a few dates at a time.

Yes, it is but i think piper right to be wary about him, she has great instint

don't remember what happend that guy who didn't like using magic

i didn't all i said was i judge for myself

Stop getting so defensive bala.

Richard... didnt he go off to deal with his issues or something?

Just imdb'd him. Did you know he was going into Alias bala? You watch that, dont you?

yes i watch that but five drop that show

hi, interesting question or theory.... or whatever..

you know wyatt, chris and paige? well peolpe are always saying that they are half whitelighter and half witch. or at least they have whitelighter powers. but i thought that you could only become a whitelighter after you've died and only if you were a certain kind of person during your life. i don't think it can be hereditary otherwise there would be much more whitelighters and it would defeat the object of how you become a whitelighter. take wyatt for example: his dad was a mortal before he died, so theoretically wyatt should be half witch and half whitelighter... am i wrong? or is this a mistake they have made? if it is then i think it's a pretty major mistake...

quote:

theoretically wyatt should be half witch and half whitelighter

yes that makes sense but since this is sci-fi show it can't be as simple as that . The fact wyat is so powerful was reason why elder forbid Leo & piper from getting married

oops. i meant to say he should be half witch and half mortal of course... so how does it work then? can whitelighter ability be passed on?
